    Have the GFWL servers finally been shutdown ?


    As the title, a month or so ago i played gta iv complete (retail dvd) to find a few flying rats, i signed into my gfwl profile and it worked fine

    today i felt like a game of it and find a few more, the game loaded up and i tried to sign in but got the message something like "ip address not signed in"

    i tried 2 more dvd's (SF 4 and battlestations pacific) to see if it was game specsific and got the same message

    does this mean that it is now off alltogether and i have to buy these games again somewhere else, if so thanks (that was sarcasem btw)

    and if MS thinks i'm going to buy them or anything else from the MS store, then they are quite mistaken

    :)

    Have the GFWL servers finally been shutdown ?

    Hi Alabamatick! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation

    The service was discontinued many years ago, but has continued operational, however there is no official support for this service

    Batman AC (GFWL)

    Possibly due to the GFWL shutdown. I believe it's already began. Another Microsoft phase.

    Final Fantasy XI.

    That is all. After the shutdown of the PSU servers last year, FFXI is the last bastion of fantasy style MMORPG's.

    I can guarantee you won't get a different answer from here until there's an official announcement that differs from what you've been told.
